Definitely worth downloading this applet, me thinks.
Check out our mini test, download the Powertoy, and let's us know your thoughts on how well it works for you and on the RAW image situation generally.Windows XP has no native support for viewing digital stills in RAW format but there is a free Microsoft Powertoy applet that lets anyone get at RAW files captured from supported Canon and Nikon cameras. Folders of images can be browsed as thumbnails, slideshows run and Raw files viewed at high res and printed, too.
